After being the first team to create a two-qubit gate in silicon in 2015, UNSW Sydney engineers are breaking new ground again: they have measured the accuracy of silicon two-qubit operations for the first time – and their results confirm the promise of silicon for quantum computing.

Dr Henry Yang and colleagues, from the UNSW School of Electrical Engineering & Telecommunications, have published this week a new paper in Nature Electronics which reports a new world-record fidelity (or accuracy) for a quantum-dot-based silicon qubit

The new Sydney Quantum Academy has received over $15m in new funding from the NSW state government to promote educational and entrepreneurial links between four Sydney universities: UNSW, University of Sydney, UTS and Macquarie University.

Federal MP Dan Tehan toured ANFF-NSW where world-leading quantum computing qubit devices are fabricated. As an NCRIS funded facility within the Federal Education portfolio, ANFF-NSW was honoured to receive a visit from the Federal Minister for Education.

The Minister for Education and Training announced on 15 May 2018 that an additional $36.2 million will be invested in the Australian National Fabrication Facility (ANFF) to maintain the ANFF network’s position at the forefront of scientific exploration.

UNSW engineers have developed a completely new architecture for quantum computing, based on what they’re calling ‘flip-flop qubits’, that promise to make the eventual large-scale manufacture of quantum chips much cheaper and
easier

This year the Australian National Fabrication Facility and the Australian Microscopy & Microanalysis Research Facility will be jointly holding an Annual Research Showcase on 22 and 23 November 2017 at the Australian Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology, Sydney Nanoscience Hub.
